Angio / Interventional Rotation

Goals (common to all of the rotations)

Determine the appropriateness of patient selection for a requested procedure
through review of available history, imaging, laboratory values and proposed/expected
outcomes of the procedure, as well as obtain deficient information in
these areas.

Demonstrate understanding of history/physical findings or treatment scenarios
that would require pre-procedure assistance from other specialty disciplines
such as cardiology, anesthesia, surgery and internal medicine.

Obtain informed consent after a review with the patient of the procedure(s),
risks, benefits and alternative therapeutic options/procedures.

Recognize monitoring abnormalities and physical signs/symptoms that need
immediate attention during a procedure.
